Download a single folder or directory from a GitHub repository

How can I download only a specific folder or directory from a remote Git repository hosted on GitHub?

Say the example GitHub repository lives here:

[email protected]:foobar/Test.git

Its directory structure:

Test/
├── foo/
│ ├── a.py
│ └── b.py
└── bar/
 ├── c.py
 └── d.py

I want to download only the foo folder and not clone the whole Test project.
